Who lags (rom dread of daily work,
And his appointed task would shirk,
Commits a lolly and a crime ;
A soulless slave—
A paltry knave—
A c'og upon the wheels of time-
With work to do, and store of health,
The man's unworthy to be free,
Who will not give,
That he may live,
His daily toil for daily fee.
No I let ua work ! Wc only ask
Reward proportion'd to our task;

No feud with rank—

No envy ofa lord's estate.
If we can earn sufficient store
To satisfy our daily ueed,

No dread of toil have we or oura,
We know our worth, and weigh our power-
The more we work tbe more we win j

Tlie .First Ocean Steamer.
It is remarked, says the S. F. Prices Curt ent'
that the merit of first navigating the ocean by
means ef steam vessels, is almost universally attributed to the originators of a line between London and New York, so late as 1838. Oa the 22d
of April of that year, the Sirius, of London, a vessel of only some 700 tons burthen, was hailed at
New "¥ork as the pioneer of an enterprise which
was destined to he of snch vast importance to the
commerce and naval standing, not only ot Great
Britain and the United States, but of the entire
civilized world. The British company deserve the
credit, doubtless, of expediting intercourse between tlie two countries; but only hy carrying
out what had long before been demonstrated—its
feasibility. Recent developments prove very
clearly that as early as 1819, an American steamer crossed and re-crossed the Atlantic in safety.
and, under the circumstances, in remarkably good
time, iiany improvements in shipbuilding and
machinery have greatly reduced the length of
passa'ge between the two countries, but, for forty
years ago, the time made by the Savannah may
be deemed highly creditable. The circumstances
which brought to modern observation, if we may
be allowed the expression, the facts referred to are
these: Recently, an application was made to Ci n"
gress by a Mrs. Charlotte Taylor for her relief, the
Ifline tb&t he* fatbar. tho l*to Wm. Ooa.-
borough, of Savannah, Ga., bad, as far back as"
1819, expended his entire fortune in the fitt
ont and running of a sea-going steamer between
Savannah and Liverpool ; that in this eutefpme
he had been encouraged by the promise of aid
from the Government, whieh had never been real
etc. Scarborough, like most pioneers, spent
all liis money, and much of that of his friends, in
the project ; but, as usual, met with no adequate
reward—for, having beeu reduced to penury, he
was compelled to forego any advantages which
might have arisen irom his eflorts, and at length
died in obscurity, Accompanying the documents
feferred to, is the affidavit of Stephen Rogers, an
officer of the Savannah during ber visit to Europe- Rogers says:
I was the sailing master of the stcanlship Savannah, Georgia, on her trip to Liverpool,Copen.
liogcn, St. Petersburg, etc., said steamship being
the first eteam vessel that ever crossed tbe Atlantic propelled by steam. Said steamship Savannah
was built at the city of New York, in the year
1819, by ship builders, the firm being of Picket &
Crockett, she being designed by said builders for
a Havre packet. The vessel was purchased by
Wm. Scarborough, Ga., and was named, at bin
suggestion, the Savan ah, and under liis direction
t-he was fitted up as a steam vessel, he having told
me lhat, in his opiniou, the ocean would bu navigated hy steam, and he intended that his own
State (Georgia) and the city of Savannah, should
have the credit of sending the first steam vessel
across the Atlantic. H«T oastiogs were made iu
New York, and lu>r boilers manniaclured aLEiiza-
bclhtown, N. J., by Daniel Dodge. The expense
not permitting any vessels but New York vessels
to be navigated by steam iri their waters), and
sailed for Savannaht Ga., and arrived there in the
early part oTMay, 1819.
President Monrce ani his suite vrere at' this
time in Charleston, S. C. Wm. Scarborough directed us to proceed to Charleston, and give President Monroe an invitatioa to come to Savannah
in the steam vessel. We went in accordance with
hia directions to Charleston, and called upon President Monroe aud gave bira the invitation above
stated. President Monroe informed ua that the
people of Charleston did not wish him to leave
tlieir State in a Georgia conveyance, and that he
would visit us at Savannah. We returned to Savannah. In a few days after, President Mooroe
arrived in Savannah, and came on board, the vessel with his suit and several naval officers and
citizens. The vessel was navigated entirely by
steam ; we proceeded down the river upon an excursion, and the President, etc., dined on board.
The President was greatly pleased with the vessel
aud stated to Scarborough that, upon the arrival
of the Savannah from her cruise across the Atlautic, whieh waa then about to be made, he desired
the vessel to be brought to Washington, and he
thought there would be no doubt the Government
would purchase her, aud employ her for a cruiser
upon the coast of Cuba, etc.
The deponent goes on to Btato that the vessel
sailed from Savannah for Liverpool on the 20th
May, 1819, and made the latter port in twenty-
four days, which time she was under steam only
fourteen days, the fear of running short of fuel
having led to a resort to canvass. The account
proceeds:
When we arrived off Cape Clear, the Admiral at
Cork despatched a Bhip to our relief, supposing
that we were ou fire ! This ship caused a great
excitement upon her arrival at Liverpool, and a
great many amusing incidents occurred, which
would take too much time and space to relate-
The English Govetnment watched us apparently
wilh great jealousy, and it was rumored that the
ship was destined to remove Napoleon from the
island of St. Helena to the United States ! 'From
Liverpool we proceeded to Copenhagen, where she
excited great curiosity ;■ and from thence to Stockholm, where a like interest aud curiosity to see
r were manifested. She was visited at Stockholm by the royal family— and'als*?, at the invitation of Mr. Hughes, our Minister, by Sir Thomas
Graham (Lord Lyudock), who was then on a tour
through the north of Europe, and wo made an excursion among the islands. Lord Lyndock proceeded on board our vessel to St. Petersburg.
While on our passage to St. Petersburg, Lord
Lyndock desired us to bring the vessel from
steam to canvass. He held his watch and noted
the time employed to change the vessel from Steam
to canvass ; this was accomplished, as he stated,
in fifteen raiuutes. So delighted was he, that he
exclaimed, " I blame no man born in tbe United
States for being proud of his country, aud was Jf
a young man, I'd go there myself. He was received at Cronstadt by the Emperor Alexander,
who was much pleased with the vessel. She sailed
from St. Pelersburg to Arundel, in Norway, and
from thence to Savannah, Georgia, making the
passage from Arundel to Savannah iu twenty-five
days, steaming on her passage nineteen days,—
The expenses of this trip were borne by William
Scarborough, and as I was informed and believe,
consumed bis entire estate, which was supposed to
be latge. the great fire at Savannah alsi occurred soon lifter our arrival, and while we were ou
our way from Savannah to Washington, in accordance with the suggestion of President Monroe.
For some reason not known to me, the Government did not purchase the vessel, and Mr. Sear-
borough, being embarrassed in bis circumstances,
the vessel was at last sold at auction, and she was
turned into a packet. The credit ofthe enterprise

Mortal Ilia-ess ok C'aiioi.vjl Wiseman.—Tho
friends of Cardinal Wiseman had for some weeks
entertained serious apprehensions as to the condition of his health. Such was his state on the 19th
May, it was deemed advisable by his medical advisers that he should retire from London, in order
to avoid the anxiety and worry of business. On
tbe 20th, the Cardinal left his reaidende in Yort
Place, Baker street, for bis country seat at Ley-
ton, Essc.r. H:* is said to have for some time Buffered from: diabetes, a form of disease looked orj.

It will be seen that Kansas, the smallest of the
inchoate States, bas nearly twice the area of the
first class StateB now in the Union, California ex
cepted, and would cut up into abont sixteen state8
of the size of Massachusetts. T.ie area of the
three is a little more than that of the New England, Middle, and Southern States combined ! It
is curious to note that, as they now stand, the
states and the Territories have nearly equal areas,
the states comprising 1,464,105 square miles, and
the Territories 1.472,061.

the two Democratic State conventions that have recently been held in Illinois, narrates the following:
A little weazeL&ced, pipe-voiced Douglas man,
came up to Jake Xewsoine, a comparative giant in'
weight and height, and inquired of him, "Sir, which"
wing do you belong to?"
'■Wingf!" replied Jake, in a voiee of* thunder.'
"Ves, sir, which wing of the unterrified Democracy,*'" i ski'J the little follow.
"Wing, n—-ill. We belong to no wing—the

Tlie .First Ocean Steamer.
It is remarked, says the S. F. Prices Curt ent'
that the merit of first navigating the ocean by
means ef steam vessels, is almost universally attributed to the originators of a line between London and New York, so late as 1838. Oa the 22d
of April of that year, the Sirius, of London, a vessel of only some 700 tons burthen, was hailed at
New "¥ork as the pioneer of an enterprise which
was destined to he of snch vast importance to the
commerce and naval standing, not only ot Great
Britain and the United States, but of the entire
civilized world. The British company deserve the
credit, doubtless, of expediting intercourse between tlie two countries; but only hy carrying
out what had long before been demonstrated—its
feasibility. Recent developments prove very
clearly that as early as 1819, an American steamer crossed and re-crossed the Atlantic in safety.
and, under the circumstances, in remarkably good
time, iiany improvements in shipbuilding and
machinery have greatly reduced the length of
passa'ge between the two countries, but, for forty
years ago, the time made by the Savannah may
be deemed highly creditable. The circumstances
which brought to modern observation, if we may
be allowed the expression, the facts referred to are
these: Recently, an application was made to Ci n"
gress by a Mrs. Charlotte Taylor for her relief, the
Ifline tb&t he* fatbar. tho l*to Wm. Ooa.-
borough, of Savannah, Ga., bad, as far back as"
1819, expended his entire fortune in the fitt
ont and running of a sea-going steamer between
Savannah and Liverpool ; that in this eutefpme
he had been encouraged by the promise of aid
from the Government, whieh had never been real
etc. Scarborough, like most pioneers, spent
all liis money, and much of that of his friends, in
the project ; but, as usual, met with no adequate
reward—for, having beeu reduced to penury, he
was compelled to forego any advantages which
might have arisen irom his eflorts, and at length
died in obscurity, Accompanying the documents
feferred to, is the affidavit of Stephen Rogers, an
officer of the Savannah during ber visit to Europe- Rogers says:
I was the sailing master of the stcanlship Savannah, Georgia, on her trip to Liverpool,Copen.
liogcn, St. Petersburg, etc., said steamship being
the first eteam vessel that ever crossed tbe Atlantic propelled by steam. Said steamship Savannah
was built at the city of New York, in the year
1819, by ship builders, the firm being of Picket &
Crockett, she being designed by said builders for
a Havre packet. The vessel was purchased by
Wm. Scarborough, Ga., and was named, at bin
suggestion, the Savan ah, and under liis direction
t-he was fitted up as a steam vessel, he having told
me lhat, in his opiniou, the ocean would bu navigated hy steam, and he intended that his own
State (Georgia) and the city of Savannah, should
have the credit of sending the first steam vessel
across the Atlantic. H«T oastiogs were made iu
New York, and lu>r boilers manniaclured aLEiiza-
bclhtown, N. J., by Daniel Dodge. The expense
not permitting any vessels but New York vessels
to be navigated by steam iri their waters), and
sailed for Savannaht Ga., and arrived there in the
early part oTMay, 1819.
President Monrce ani his suite vrere at' this
time in Charleston, S. C. Wm. Scarborough directed us to proceed to Charleston, and give President Monroe an invitatioa to come to Savannah
in the steam vessel. We went in accordance with
hia directions to Charleston, and called upon President Monroe aud gave bira the invitation above
stated. President Monroe informed ua that the
people of Charleston did not wish him to leave
tlieir State in a Georgia conveyance, and that he
would visit us at Savannah. We returned to Savannah. In a few days after, President Mooroe
arrived in Savannah, and came on board, the vessel with his suit and several naval officers and
citizens. The vessel was navigated entirely by
steam ; we proceeded down the river upon an excursion, and the President, etc., dined on board.
The President was greatly pleased with the vessel
aud stated to Scarborough that, upon the arrival
of the Savannah from her cruise across the Atlautic, whieh waa then about to be made, he desired
the vessel to be brought to Washington, and he
thought there would be no doubt the Government
would purchase her, aud employ her for a cruiser
upon the coast of Cuba, etc.
The deponent goes on to Btato that the vessel
sailed from Savannah for Liverpool on the 20th
May, 1819, and made the latter port in twenty-
four days, which time she was under steam only
fourteen days, the fear of running short of fuel
having led to a resort to canvass. The account
proceeds:
When we arrived off Cape Clear, the Admiral at
Cork despatched a Bhip to our relief, supposing
that we were ou fire ! This ship caused a great
excitement upon her arrival at Liverpool, and a
great many amusing incidents occurred, which
would take too much time and space to relate-
The English Govetnment watched us apparently
wilh great jealousy, and it was rumored that the
ship was destined to remove Napoleon from the
island of St. Helena to the United States ! 'From
Liverpool we proceeded to Copenhagen, where she
excited great curiosity ;■ and from thence to Stockholm, where a like interest aud curiosity to see
r were manifested. She was visited at Stockholm by the royal family— and'als*?, at the invitation of Mr. Hughes, our Minister, by Sir Thomas
Graham (Lord Lyudock), who was then on a tour
through the north of Europe, and wo made an excursion among the islands. Lord Lyndock proceeded on board our vessel to St. Petersburg.
While on our passage to St. Petersburg, Lord
Lyndock desired us to bring the vessel from
steam to canvass. He held his watch and noted
the time employed to change the vessel from Steam
to canvass ; this was accomplished, as he stated,
in fifteen raiuutes. So delighted was he, that he
exclaimed, " I blame no man born in tbe United
States for being proud of his country, aud was Jf
a young man, I'd go there myself. He was received at Cronstadt by the Emperor Alexander,
who was much pleased with the vessel. She sailed
from St. Pelersburg to Arundel, in Norway, and
from thence to Savannah, Georgia, making the
passage from Arundel to Savannah iu twenty-five
days, steaming on her passage nineteen days,—
The expenses of this trip were borne by William
Scarborough, and as I was informed and believe,
consumed bis entire estate, which was supposed to
be latge. the great fire at Savannah alsi occurred soon lifter our arrival, and while we were ou
our way from Savannah to Washington, in accordance with the suggestion of President Monroe.
For some reason not known to me, the Government did not purchase the vessel, and Mr. Sear-
borough, being embarrassed in bis circumstances,
the vessel was at last sold at auction, and she was
turned into a packet. The credit ofthe enterprise

Mortal Ilia-ess ok C'aiioi.vjl Wiseman.—Tho
friends of Cardinal Wiseman had for some weeks
entertained serious apprehensions as to the condition of his health. Such was his state on the 19th
May, it was deemed advisable by his medical advisers that he should retire from London, in order
to avoid the anxiety and worry of business. On
tbe 20th, the Cardinal left his reaidende in Yort
Place, Baker street, for bis country seat at Ley-
ton, Essc.r. H:* is said to have for some time Buffered from: diabetes, a form of disease looked orj.
